I'm just getting into the hobby and have just finished cycling my tank. I just received my corals and CUC today and don't know what my lighting schedule should look like.

Coral
•Pom Pom Xenia
•3 different zoa frags
•psychedelic mushroom frag

CUC
•bicolor blenny
•7 red leg hermits
•7 astrea snails
•4 Nassarius snails
•1 emerald crab

Lighting
•Current USA Orbit Marine (standard)

Tank
•28 gallon
•~25 lbs. dry rock
•20 lbs. live sand

Any help or suggestions would be great!
